Food Inc. [film]

WHY?: In the 1980s the U.S. Supreme Court said that companies can patent life. Soon after, Monsanto patented a special soybean breed resistant to a special pesticide that they just so happened to sell. In just over 10 years Monsanto's soybean breed went from being 2% of all soybeans grown in the U.S., to 90%. In the near future, 1 in 2 minorities born after 2000 will have contracted early onset diabetes. In the 1990s and early 2000s, George Bush Jr. and Bill Clinton stacked the deck of their respective administrations with former industry insiders who oversaw massive deregulation of the food industry, allowing a few companies to seize control and use that centralized power to control farmers, producers, and consumers. And that's not even the beginning. If you eat food in America, you should probably see this film in theaters or at [ninjavideo.net]. Trailer after the break.
